Perhaps one of the greatest fears that transgender people face is losing the love and support of family and friends when they "come out" about their gender identity. For transwoman Jamy Spradlin, honesty has definitely been the best policy.

"I don't usually lie to people," she said. "Covering lies is difficult."

That policy has paid off for her.
